Default 2000 C5 Exhaust

Looking for some advice, I have a stock 2000 C5 and my exhaust on the right side broke right at the flange on the back side. I had pulled in and parked, and when I came back out and started it, that is when it broke, is this common ?

I noticed a lot of people replacing the stock with the Z06 exhaust........

I would like a little more sound but no drone and chrome tips, any suggestions

Also where is a good place to find the z06 ti exhuast ?

Thanks for any help in advance.

Cliff

yes it is a common thing . z exhausted are a little louder then stock . B&B prts are not bad as long as you don't add headers . I have prts with long tube headers at 1500 rpm there is a drone , that I live with because the rest of the time they sound great ..

I replaced my after cats with B&B Prt's with oval tips. NO drone! Looks great! I love it! I never had a problem with this breaking you talked about. Also not sure about where to find the TI exhaust you mentioned. Search on the forum, Ebay, and even perhaps you could try you local stealership! Good Luck!
